Costa Cruises is enticing travelers to experience an authentic Italian holiday by offering cruises starting at just $399 per person, double occupancy, on select Mediterranean itineraries when booked by June 30. 

Costa’s “Mediterranean Sale” deals are available on select September 2023 to March 2024 cruises. The Italian cruise line will have three ships — flagship Costa Toscana, Costa Smeralda and Costa Diadema — sailing the western Mediterranean on weeklong cruises visiting destinations in Italy, Spain and France:

• Costa Smeralda will depart roundtrip from Civitavecchia (Rome), Italy, or Barcelona, Spain, and visit Marseille, France; Palermo and Savona, Italy; and Palma de Mallorca, Spain.
• Costa Toscana will depart roundtrip from Civitavecchia or Barcelona on an itinerary visiting Marseille, and Cagliari, Genoa and Naples, Italy. 
• Costa Diadema will depart roundtrip from Civitavecchia, calling at Savona, Marseille and Palma de Mallorca; Valencia, Spain; and La Spezia, Italy. 

Starting in October 2023, Costa Deliziosa will sail the eastern Mediterranean on three different eight or 15-day itineraries, visiting destinations in Italy, Croatia, Greece and Turkey:      

• Eight-day roundtrip from Trieste, Italy, calling at Split, Croatia; Kotor, Montenegro; Corfu, Argostoli/Kefalonia and Katakolon/Olympia, Greece; and Bari, Italy.
• Eight-day roundtrip from Trieste calling at Split, Corfu, Katakolon/Olympia and Crete, Greece; and Istanbul, Turkey. 
• 15-day roundtrip from Trieste calling at Split and Dubrovnik, Croatia; Corfu, Crete, Katakolon/Olympia and Piraeus/Athens, Greece; Istanbul and Izmir, Turkey; and Bari. 

“Costa is looking forward to another outstanding cruising season this fall, and what better way to celebrate the start of summer than with a special promotion on our most popular cruises throughout the Mediterranean,” said Scott Knutson, vice president of sales and trade marketing for Costa Cruises North America. “Costa’s Mediterranean cruises continue to attract travelers looking for memorable experiences while Cruising Italian Style, something we’ve been treating our guests to for 75 years.”

The best way to experience the Mediterranean is on a cruise line that was founded in Italy. Costa Cruises serves authentic Italian food the way real Italians like it — signature recipes from each region in the country, later dining times, ship-made mozzarella cheese and gelato, and venues that reflect the country. Guests can indulge in Italy’s most popular food and beverage brands, such as Aperol, Campari, Ferrari Trento, Frescobaldi wine and Caffé Vergnano coffee. North American guests can expect a truly international vacation experience from the only Italian-flagged cruise line, no matter where in the world they are sailing.
